Chapter 814: Chapter 773: Is This Invitation Letter Useful or Not?
The First Pokémon Spirit Beasts Chase Competition is passionately underway.
The spectators in the live broadcast room are watching this miraculous spectacle while discussing what just happened.
The netizens also understood the meaning of Lincoln’s Spiritual Rhinoceros post from the Xiajing netizens –
The scene of the Kunpeng breaking out of the water and soaring into the sky was not only seen by the players on the scene, but also by everyone wearing the [Eight Sides] Helm within the Second Ring Road.
Cloud Dream employed unprecedented computing power, resulting in the grand scene Lincoln wanted.
Of course, when Lincoln creates a spectacle, the scale is bound to exceed what is currently in view, which is just the beginning.
What is to come, is the question eagerly discussed by the viewers in the live streaming room and the netizens:
“Did the Kunpeng disappear after leaving? Or did it fly somewhere else?”
Soon, a netizen posted live coverage –
“It didn’t disappear! It just flew over my head!”
“I live in the Fourth Ring Road, I thought I missed it, but the Kunpeng just flew past the outside of my house!”
“Xiajing’s Fifth Ring Road, reporting in, there’s a sighting of the Kunpeng!”
…
Reports of sightings of the Kunpeng keep cropping up one after another, confirming that the Kunpeng didn’t disappear, it’s still flying high in the sky, moving farther and farther away from the city center.
The players start to analyze where the Kunpeng is headed.
Super Tomato opens a map, marks the sightings from the netizens on it and finds a clue:
The sighting locations connected on the map form a straight line!
– Using the map of Xiajing as a reference, this line might not be totally straight, but when using the map of entire Daxia, it is unquestionably a straight line.
Starting from the North Sea Park, it stretches south, and the latest sighting is already beyond the Sixth Ring Road.
Seeing this line, Super Tomato suddenly realizes something :
“Cloud Dream chose North Sea Park as the venue, not just because it is in the center of Xiajing, but also because of this [North Sea] lake!”
Thinking about it, he even felt a wave of regret: “Why didn’t I think of this obvious fact before?”
With this hint, some viewers quickly catch on.
Of course, many people still had no idea what was going on, and kept questioning.
Super Tomato opens up the section titled “Roaming with the Unrestrained” from Zhuangzi, highlighting the passage:
[In the North Sea there is a fish, whose name is Kun. No one knows how many thousand li it measures, it changes and becomes a bird, whose name is Peng. The back of Peng measures I do not know how many thousand li across. It flies in a rage, its wings are like those of the clouds of the sky. The sea turns then towards the farthest south. The farthest south, that is, the Celestial Lake.]
“Kunpeng’s migration begins from the Northern Sea and stops at the Southern Sea.”
“The North Sea, the northern ocean, understanding it as the North Sea, there’s no problem.”
Upon hearing this, all the viewers understood Super Tomato’s point –
“So, choosing North Sea Park was because the [North Sea] itself was the best place to be Kunpeng’s birthplace.”
“So, is Kunpeng flying south all the way to the Southern Sea?”
“Including the sea area, nearly 3000 kilometers, it will fly all the way?”
The audiences feel this is inconceivable.
Super Tomato uses a pen to draw a straight line between Xiajing and the southernmost reef of the South Sea on the map.
Looking at the line that almost cuts through the map of Daxia, he took a long time before he could speak again.
Once again, Lincoln demonstrated to the players what a real “large-scale” operation is!
No wonder, when he posted the message, he didn’t specify [Xiajing].
Because as long as you are on this line, all [Eight Sides] users, as long as they look up at the right time, can see the broad and majestic body of the Kunpeng sweeping through the sky, feeling its massive shadow that eclipses the sun!
If there’s anything unsatisfying about this heart-shaking act, it’s that the Kunpeng might not make a turn halfway and fly over one’s head…
Such a grand spectacle, yet one can’t witness it firsthand, it’s indeed a regret.
…
Super Tomato wasn’t the only one to discover this, many netizens with more agile minds also noticed this “south flying route”.
Some big shots even began to count the sighting positions and times of the Kunpeng, calculating its flight speed, and broadcasting the location in advance for netizens.
But their predictions are inevitably not without errors.
Because the line of Kunpeng’s “migration” isn’t exactly a straight line, but involves minor adjustments according to the distribution of cities along the route.
Without affecting the main line, they try to let as many users as possible see it.
…
The marathon in the North Sea didn’t end until a full 40 minutes later.
As the little octopus Kraken swung its tentacles and moved quickly through the air, more and more players gave up as their stamina is unable to keep up, stopping and huffing for breath as they leaned on their thighs.
Those with better stamina gradually emerged, and amongst them, the star professional player of [Frost Wind Club], [White Frost], who had been hiding in the crowd, was finally discovered.
With her training habits developed from previous VR competitions, White Frost always kept a workout routine and maintained top physical fitness in the crowd without a doubt.
In the end, relying on her physical advantage, a gold bell dropped by the big octopus itself, and a little bit of crucial luck, she successfully tamed the [Kraken].
This is the first world BOSS level pet to be tamed, and it is also the only one so far that has the potential for [Water], [Poison], and [Physical] attributes!
White Frost posted the attribute interface of [Kraken] online the same day.
——Clearly, being rich isn’t enough, you have to show off, as if walking in a brocade at night.

The popularity of “Pokémon” is rising, not only makes the Wild Island feel uncomfortable, but also players who can’t buy [Eight Sides] overseas.
Even if [Heavenly Craft] acts quickly, finalizes partners, and sends equipment to various countries overseas in large quantities, it still needs a constant amount of time.
Especially for European and American users.
Originally, the Mirage took over a month to ship by sea to Brazil and Mexico.
Now it’s [Eight Sides]’ turn, and it won’t be much faster.
Players who are not short of money have once again chosen to buy online and go by air.
——But this only applies to healthy players, because the equipment adjustment process for healthy users is very simple, they can rely on the manual and tutorial videos to complete it themselves.
But if there are vision issues, then they must have someone else’s help, and preferably professional help, to wear the headband without any side effects.
Otherwise, problems such as dizziness, squinting, and poor balance may occur.
Now in the [Journey Prosthetics] company, on one hand, they are still discussing cooperation, and on the other hand, they have started emergency training classes, teaching potential partners how to adjust [Eight Sides] for users for free.
In this respect, [Journey Prosthetics] is very generous, even if they don’t reach an agreement in the end, there’s no need to hide this kind of service-oriented and after-sales technology.
Not only for [Eight Sides] headset, even for the adaptation installation technology of [Journey] and [Heavenly Craft], as long as you are willing to learn, they are willing to teach you for free.
After all, they all comply with the technical standards of [Journey Prosthetics], once learned, they can only rely on the ecosystem of [Journey Prosthetics] to cash in.
So the more people who know, the better!
In addition to these people, there are also some players whose reasons for pain may vary, but their level of pain is in no way inferior.
They are the players who made a wish a week ago and got the [“Chang’an” invitation letter].
It’s been a week, is this invitation still any good?!
